As context, there is a single 3.0 on the census which copy of this rare item just sold on Heritage for $528 (with BP) on October 22, 2023. See here: If Bombs Fall! #nn (Review and Herald, 1942) CGC GD/VG 3.0 | Lot #17130 | Heritage Auctions (ha.com) This is Heritage's description: "The first copy we have ever offered of this scarce book. WWII Air Raid Manual with illustrations by Milton Caniff. Not listed in Overstreet. CGC census 9/23: 1 in 3.0, 1 higher."  To my eyes they are comparable, but I recognize that there is a cost/value to cleaning and encapsulation so I'm selling this unencapsulated copy at a $150 discount for $375:
